November 2022 TBR & Monthly Challenges

My favorite blurb, as always: In 2022, I'm continuing to participate in the Words & Whimsy Reading Challenge (new challenge each month - November is "Readers of the Lost ARC" theme). You sign up and are split into teams and finish books for points. They also have a mini game, photo challenge, and charity challenge to get points for your team as well.

October was a little nuts - 3 band competitions (this last weekend was so fun - kids took first place in their class and grand champion of the smaller classes - out of 16 bands!!), 3 football games, fall break, HOA meetings, board meetings, band booster meetings, after school rehearsals, doctor appts galore...I AM TIRED. The first few weeks of November are shaping up to be just as busy, but then it should quiet down some and I'm hoping to tackle some more ebooks and physical books rather than just audiobooks.

In October, I finished 10 books. 5 were on my TBR, so that's nice, but I am starting to stray from my TBR a bit and mood read a bit more. I may have to make shorter TBRs in the beginning of 2023 and allow myself to not feel guilty about the mood reading. I did make TBRs for November and December already so I'm hoping maybe I can stick to them. I think this month has a good mix of audio, ebook, and physical and that might work for me.

My TBR for November:
  • Soul of Stars by Ashley Poston (Hardcover - Purchased)
  • The Rains by Gregg Hurwitz (Kindle - Netgalley)
  • Buzz Books 2022: Romance by Publishers Lunch (Kindle - Netgalley)
  • Shadow & Bone by Leigh Bardugo (Audio - Purchased)
  • Siege & Storm by Leigh Bardugo (Audio - Purchased)
  • Ruin & Rising by Leigh Bardugo (Audio - Purchased)
  • The Final Gambit by Jennifer Lynn Barnes (Audio - Library)
  • Four Dead Queens by Astrid Scholte (Hardcover - Purchased)
